6 Conclusion

A microcontroller with integrated FRAM provides a non-volatile memory that can be used for both data and code storage (unified memory), is low-power, can be written quickly, and offers practically unlimited write endurance.

The FRAM-based microcontrollers can be used in nearly every MCU-based application, and their unique features may enable new applications in the future.
